Curry scored 30 points, including 20 in the second half, and Klay Thompson added 19 for the Warriors, who have lost three of four. David Lee added 18 points and 13 rebounds for his fifth double-double in a row.

“I am finding that the guys in the suit and tie want it more than the guys in uniform,” Warriors coach Mark Jackson said. “It's disappointing right now. We are going to be fine, but it's disappointing to once again lose in the same fashion.”

The Warriors lost even though Curry and Thompson bettered their 44 points-per-game average and went a combined 6 of 11 on 3-pointers.
